probably a result from all the antitrust / monopoly stuff that went down a long time ago.

something smaller companies like apple wouldn't get in trouble for

it is ludicrous that ti doesn't come with one, I'll agree to that. But what's even worse is that it came with windows media player and center, and they show the option to play dvd, but it won't

This is why one is not included with Windows, and why it's illegal to play DVDs in linux
